I know what you mean. When someone gets on here and gives a differing opinion, it's called arguing. Especially when the 7-8 other cheerleaders come out and pile on. Well, if it's 7-8 to 1, then that "one" must surely be a "retard", "stupid", or just a plain old troublemaker. If his opinion isn't with the clique's, he is really just an idiot...right?
I really could careless who runs what. What motivates me is how the "special interest groups" come out of the woodwork to persuade a person one way or another. You might just be one of those people as I remember a conversation a while back with you and the Fiskars that left me scratching my head (don't take it personal). It doesn't intimidate me in the slightest that my views might differ from the norm. I'm not on here to win a popularity contest. I'm on here to learn, communicate with others (that are willing), and give others my opinions from my perspective. I'm not going to lose any sleep at night if someone (or many someone's) doesn't agree with what I have to say.
